Tiny Masterpiece Took 1,000 Hours Montreal,--(CP)-Take 1,200 separate piects of wood, carve del. icately 'to fit for size, glue them together carefully and you have an exquisite, miniature church, complete with altar, statues, flo ers, pews, and electric lights.

It consists of youth groups who have come from many countries of the world to Yugoslavia during the summer to help build this line which has enormous significance for the economic future of this country and the Balkans. The volunteer groups include young men and women from Bri- tain, Italy, Greece, Hungary, Al- bania, Palestine, Poland Czecho- slovakia, Austria, France, Norway and Denmark. A recent announcement here said some 400 students are scheduled to arrive from Britain alone. This group was said to have been organ- ized jointly by the British-Yugo- slav Society and the British Na- tional Students' Union. Fifty stu- dents are scheduled to arrive ev- ery week during the next two months. The total number of these "in- ternational brigaders" is expected to exceed by far the 2,000 who last year helped the construction of the Breko-Banoicici youth railway line, only a third as long as the present 170-mile line and which employed 60,000 youths, compared to a total of 180,000 scheduled to work on the new plan, The new line is the first and one of the most important projects of the recently-announced five-year plan to industrialize the country. Official Yugoslav statements said the new line "will carry most of Yugoslavia's future 'import and ex- port trade." But more immediately, it will open to exploitation for the first time huge iron ore, coal and chalk deposits, counted among the rich- est untapped reserves in this part of the world, as well as Bosnia's forests,. an almost inexhaustible supply of first-rate timber.
